Therapist Overview
As a clinical social worker with more than 40 years experience, I provide individual psychotherapy, with an approach that is pragmatic, positive, practical and eclectic, using tools and techniques from CBT and DBT Approaches, such as Mindfulness, Emotion Regulation, Distress Tolerance, Interpersonal Effectiveness, and supportive approaches. My special focus (since 1992) is with the elderly, adult children of aging parents, life cycle stresses and clients with serious illnesses. I have a special interest in teaching relaxation techniques to my clients to help deal with anxiety, depression, pain, and insomnia.
